There is also Meta-Update <http://www.softwaretoolhouse.com/> and specifically the ITSM 7.1 Migration Package <http://www.softwaretoolhouse.com/product/PkgMigItsm/index.html> of scripts which allows you to change your companies, organization, people, support structure, product catalogue – and even Changes of type Release into Releases – along the way.
No it is not free but the costs are small compared to the efforts saved. Contact me off list for more details or trials.

Therefore, the servers are not identical. The new server is built, customized, and UAT tested. We do have a development server where we took a db copy of prod, upgraded it to 8.1.01 (to match versions with the new server) and now we need to migrate the data. I've never used RRR|Chive or DDM. Is one better than the other for this type of migration? Thanks in advance for any thoughts/opinions/suggestions.
